English spelling question:

[elf omg]

How do I spell whiskey? I spell it whiskey, like any normal person would, but this bottle says: whisky. Which feels wrong.

Did this booze company make a typo, or am I doing it wrong??

Its Whiskey, your right. With a bunch of drunk/foreign/cheap motherfuckers making labels these days you have to expect that.

Oh hai are you from Ammurica?



It's like check or cheque, color or colour...Depends on where it's from and who's saying it, ie: doesn't matter.

Within 20 minutes of buying the fucking thing i'd be too drunk to care.

It's supposed to be whiskey

They're both correct you pack of tossers.

Whiskey: American and Irish beverages
Whisky: Everything else

[ratfrink]

Whisky/whiskies is Scottish and tends to be favoured in the UK and Canada
Whiskey/whiskeys is Irish and tends to be favoured in the US

If a whisky is not from either Scotland/Ireland (or made by Scottish/Irish people), it tends to be named according to whether it intends to taste like a Scottish or Irish whisky/whiskey.

Source: I asked someone in a whisky shop.

I tend to write 'whisky' I suppose because as I mainly drink scottish whiskies, this is what I'm used to seeing on the bottle. There are more important things than the label, though, so I wouldn't worry about it. Whisky is a weird word if you write it enough times.

You really couldn't find this out by using google for like 5 seconds?

Ah yes, Americans, the eternal wannabe Irish.

For a country which slates Europe so much and say they love America and being American, theres a helluva lot of people claiming to be Irish.

[reject]

And yes whiskey is Irish, whisky is Scottish

My source is my Scottish grandparents. Being Scottish, they love their whisky.

That's incredible! I asked someone in a music shop what the best guitar brand was and he said Ibanez.

[ratfrink]

Is that some sort of terrible attempt at an insult/undermining the legitimacy of my post?

[elf omg]

Is it just me, or does whiskey taste better than whisky?

[reject]

No. Proper whisky is superior to whiskey.

[Combat Womabt]

Fuck it. Buy Bourbon and end the confusion.

And many who don't, claim to have a grandmother who was a Cherokee Indian princess.
